This Is Hell- Black MassReview By Jen Windland

It's been a while since I've listened to some hard core screamo and Black Mass didn't disappoint. With shades of Korn and lots of throat-ruining screams, these guys deliver an album that would easily creates mosh pits and draw in crowds of darkly dressed fans. The first song brought to mind the concert scene from Queen of the Damned. It kinda just stuck.'Acid Rain' kicks off the album with a bang and leaves listeners no worry of how the rest of the album will go. Speaking of: 'Black History', 'Salt The Earth', and 'Black mass' all follow the same lines as 'Acid Rain'. Different lyrics, different beats and patterns of chords behind, all with great musical elements and some killer solos. The tracks go one following the same guidelines, keeping in the genre. My favorite is track five, 'The Wars: Part One' and its counterpart, the last song, 'The Wars: Part Two. Overall a decent album; if you're looking for a good energizing screamo album, this is it.
